If it seems out of wack (96 would be normal) then look in your /var/log/Xorg.0.log - search for /edid/i typically. If the edid isn't listed, then you can use the read-edid package to do 'get-edid | parse-edid'. The thing to check is if the EDID screen dimensions are accurate. If it turns out this is the case, the workaround is to specify your screen settings in your xorg.conf; for the fix, see wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Quirks. IIRC the Eee PC uses the -intel driver?

Also, check `dmesg` to see if at least the kernel is recognizing it. `xinput list` will show if X is noticing it at all.

You didn't mention if you tried a hardy or an intrepid image; especially for the input devices there's been changes between hardy and intrepid. It could be fruitful to try both versions.

Re: UME kernel status
Alright, well the X driver is ready to go when the kernel module and libva get upgraded, so please rebuild libdrm and then pull in the new -psb from http://people.ubuntu.com/~bryce/Uploads/ and all should be good. Let me know if there are any problems.

I've updated to the latest -psb driver, which had minor changes. The libdrm changelog was marked "no change" so there was no need to update our libdrm. deb and package for -psb beta7 is available here: http://people.ubuntu.com/~bryce/Uploads/ Unfortunately, I'm seeing an error message while trying to start X, Fatal server error: AddScreen/ScreenInit failed for driver 0 I *suspect* the reason it is failing is because I have too old of a kernel, however unfortunately, I've been unable to upgrade my UME box - apt-get upgrade segfaults in dpkg, and I wasn't able to locate a daily image to test.

Re: Fix for -psb X issue
Odd, I would have thought that since they have added requirements for xserver 1.4 features (EXA 2.2), that the code would have been tested against and supported on xserver 1.4 as well.

Ahh, that sounds like a useful approach, I'll try that next time. The approach I ended up taking was to just install everything necessary to development on the menlow box itself, then logged into it and ran debuild there locally. Was time consuming to set up, but after it was working, hacking and testing the code went quite smoothly. I did notice that I could not specify deb-src locations in /etc/apt/sources.list, so couldn't just do apt-get build-dep xserver-xorg-video-psb but I was able to manually apt-get install all the required bits and pieces by hand.

Fix for -psb X issue
I've uploaded a fix for the -psb X issue to PPA. [1] Yesterday, Amit and I found that a psbDRILock() routine was being called twice; this routine requests a lock in the kernel, which works the first time, but not the second. So this morning, I disabled the second lock/unlock in -psb[2], and sure enough, X came up and seems to be working as expected now[3].

This also confirms my explorations from the other side, that the issue
is within psbDRILock.
drmGetLock is defined in libdrm, as this:
int drmGetLock(int fd, drm_context_t context, drmLockFlags flags)
{
drm_lock_t lock;
lock.context = context;
lock.flags = 0;

Re: New -psb package
Hi Inuka, I've made some progress in getting more debug info. I loaded the -psb I posted last night - it still failed in the same spot, but I'd added some additional debug messages [1] to help narrow down where the crash is. Based on this info in the Xorg.0.log [2], I've determined that the failure is occurring during this call: psbDRILock(pScrn, 0);# Implemented in psb_dri.c As well, thanks to having networking now, I've been able to log in remotely and run xinit in gdb, and now have a backtrace: #0 0xb7fa1410 in __kernel_vsyscall () #1 0xb7d8f4e2 in sigsuspend () from /lib/libc.so.6 #2 0x08049a97 in ??

I'm experimenting with a few other techniques to try getting a better backtrace (like against X itself). I'm also going to add more debug statements into the psbDRILock() routine to further narrow in on the crash from that direction.

In investigating the X issues I noticed things appear to be failing in the memory manager.

Here's a package with this fixed (I think): http://people.ubuntu.com/~bryce/Testing/xserver-xorg-video-psb/ I also added a patch that adds more debugging code in the area where things seem to be failing, to hopefully pinpoint where the failure occurs.

Problems booting menlow box
I've not been able to build a new image to test -psb with moblin-image-creator, however Mithrandir supplied me with an img he built. However, after powercycling the test hardware this morning, it no longer boots, and I cannot access BIOS. I'd had the machine up and running this morning on the old UME image, and hadn't touched the hardware in the meantime, so I'm not sure what's gone wrong. Photos and a more detailed description of the issue is here: http://people.ubuntu.com/~bryce/UME/ Can someone with a working menlow box please boot with a new image including the new -psb and libdrm2, and verify that X comes up?

Re: patch for libdrm (2.3.0-4ubuntu1)
I've been able to get this patch to build after dropping all of the libdrm changes outside the debian/ tree by Debian (I'm assuming the changes just duplicate stuff in this patch). I should have libdrm debs up shortly, and hopefully this should enable -psb to build so hopefully I can have Hardy debs up directly (and maybe Gutsy as well, using the moblin hack).

Failures packaging Psb gfx driver / libdrm
I attempted to get the Psb driver updated to the latest from moblin.org, but without success. The way these packages are put together, it is very difficult to port the changes to Ubuntu. The principle problem is libdrm. The changes required for -psb are packages as a patch, however it fails to apply against Ubuntu's libdrm, and is too large and time consuming to manually take apart and apply in pieces. By the size of the libdrm patch, it appears that the objective is to rebase the libdrm to a newer version. Since many of the files being added by this patch are already in Ubuntu's libdrm, this is leading to a lot of conflicts. I think the only solution would be to generate a similar patch, but against ubuntu. Can someone who has access to this newer version of the tree please send me a patch built against ubuntu's libdrm? Some other questions: The libdrm tree on moblin.org has been incrementing the debian package number (e.g. 2.3.0-6 instead of 2.3.0-4psb2). I'm able to work around this, but it would be better to adjust the versioning procedures to use the latter numbering scheme. Rob/Jacob, would this be possible? The changes to libdrm result in it being a forked dependency for -psb, which makes packaging updates of -psb more involved and time consuming. To fix this, the changes to libdrm really should be pushed upstream. Is there a person responsible for doing this? What is the status? The -psb package is forcing an overwrite of xserver's libexa with -psb's local version. This seems like a dangerous and brittle solution to the EXA 2.2 issue. Do you really want this hack ported for the Ubuntu -psb package?

Possibly it would load up the vesa driver, which the installer usually does when it doesn't know what else to do. If this is considered an important use case, this might be something to work towards for Gutsy+1, but I think it may be too late in the cycle for Gutsy.

As I understand it, it requires use of a calibration tool, "like
xcalibrate". I've not yet found an appropriate calibration tool to
suggest to testers, but gather there's a few out there - just not in
Ubuntu yet. If you find one you like and let me know, I can work on
incorporating it into Ubuntu.

I've attached it to this email. Also, it's been added to the evdev
driver in Gutsy, so should already be installed for anyone with an up to
date Gutsy.

Yes, the patch should work fine built against the Feisty -evdev.
Some good documentation for creating debs from source packages, with
patches is available at http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/packagingguide/C/.
If you're interested in learning, this patch would give a good example
to work through.
In case you actually just want the deb, I've gone ahead and built a
Feisty version with this patch for you here:
http://people.ubuntu.com/~bryce/Testing/evdev-Feisty/
I haven't tested this deb out though, but expect it should work about
the same as the current Gutsy version.
Bryce
P.S., these are the steps I did to build the deb:
1. On packages.ubuntu.com, looked up the Feisty .dsc for -evdev
2. dget -x
http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/x/xserver-xorg-input-evdev/xserver-xorg-input-evdev_1.1.5-0ubuntu2.dsc
3. cd xserver-xorg-input-evdev-1.1.5/
3. Copy the patch into debian/patches/
4. Add the patch name to debian/patches/series
5. dch -i and add a new changelog entry, and set version string to
1.1.5-0ubuntu2~ppa1
6. debuild -sa -S
7. cd ..
8. pbuilder build xserver-xorg-input-evdev_1.1.5-0ubuntu2~ppa1.dsc

So I'll give it a shot. In the future, when asking questions on development lists, it might help you in getting answers if you select a subject line that gives some details of the question.

I believe the topic of porting UME to non-x86 platforms was discussed earlier on the list, so you might find it worthwhile to read the archives. I don't recall seeing anyone discuss plans to port to ARM. x86 is significantly easier to support since you don't need to do cross-compilation, and the current team members appear to be more strongly interested in x86 than other platforms. However, as with many things in open source I think the limitation is man power - given a volunteer to commit to maintaining an ARM port, I would guess the team would have little opposition to it.

Keith, do you > know what may be causing this issue? Hi, Does anyone have some advice on this issue? The mobile side of things really wants this patch, but the compiz side sees complete breakage. We ended up having to drop the patch for tribe3 at the last minute as the compiz breakage trumped the mobile breakage. I can attempt an ugly hack-around but I'm hoping someone can suggest a better approach?

I think it'll require the drm pieces to be present in the kernel before it'll work, but it might be enough for testing installation. http://people.ubuntu.com/~bryce/Testing/Poulsbo/ Bryce -- Ubuntu-mobile mailing list Ubuntu-mobile@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-mobile

As Johan mentioned earlier in this thread, this change was uploaded to Ubuntu's X today. However, there is a problem that we believe is caused by this patch. Icons on the gnome panel are flashing with white/grey backgrounds when Compiz is turned on after a regular boot. Also, the task bar is completely blanked. Since this breaks Compiz pretty visibly, we're going to hold off on including this patch for now, in hopes of a fix soon. Keith, do you know what may be causing this issue?

-evdev with Touchscreen patch uploaded
xserver-xorg-input-evdev 1.1.5-2ubuntu2 is uploaded to Gutsy, which incorporates a patch from Pepper that is described as providing "Better support for touchscreen calibrations". Tim Lawrenz was kind enough to test this on his touchscreen, and reports: "I installed the evdev and got it to work with my touchscreen easily. it captures nearly all of the screen except for approx. 10 pixels on the border. I tried to use the much cited MaxX, etc. values in the xorg.conf, but these seem to get ignored, so I have no idea how to proceed from here." If anyone could validate that this patch does in fact improve touchpad calibration options, it would be much appreciated.

Yep, from what I understood from the code, it looked safe to me too, although I'm curious what CompRedirectNone is supposed to be. My only other idea was that maybe he meant RedirectDrawNone there?

evdev Touchscreen calibration improvement patch
We recently got a patch from the Pepper project to improve support for touchscreen calibration. Unfortunately I don't have a touchscreen device handy to test on, but I've packaged it up for Gutsy here: http://people.ubuntu.com/~bryce/Testing/evdev/ If anyone here has a touchscreen they could test the above against and give me a thumbs up, and there don't seem to be any noteworthy regressions, I'll put it in for an upload.

It will also help us here. Hi Johan, I've posted .debs of xorg-server with this patch, here: http://people.ubuntu.com/~bryce/Testing/xorg-server/ (I plan to start using PPA for these kinds of test packages in the future, but will beg forgiveness for just posting the raw .debs for now.) Btw, I noticed a discrepancy between keithp's original patch and the one proposed for Feisty. The former had a chunk in its patch that modified the code to add some comparisons to 'CompRedirectNone' (which doesn't appear to exist). Since I couldn't get that chunk to compile, I went with the second proposed-for-Fesity version, but I'm curious about this chunk, and if it's at all important?

Re: Mesa 7.0 in Gutsy
Hi Charles, With mesa7, I understand it should work fine with both the old and new DRM, so I don't have any plans regarding that. As I understand, the kernel team will be taking care of this, so I'll defer to them on this.

Hi all, Mesa 7.0.0 is now available in Gutsy. It didn't make the Tribe2 freeze unfortunately, but will come in once you update. Please test and let us know of any issues with it.

Ahh, sorry, my mistake; I saw the xserver-xephyr packages you pointed to (http://people.via.ecp.fr/~jobi/xserver-xephyr/) were against Feisty so made the assumption that this was going into Feisty. Unfortunately, I've found the latest xorg-server has some build errors in composite with this patch. I'll let you know when I've gotten it fixed up.

Re: Home applet development in Xephyr
Hi Johan, I've added the patch in for my next xorg-server upload, which will go into Gutsy after the Tribe2 freeze is over and after I've had a chance to do some testing, probably within the week.
